Jo Schaffer and Gregg Weatherby

Jo Schaffer, professor of art and art history emerita, and Gregg Weatherby, professor emeritus of English, will act in Reader’s Theater’s virtual presentation of “84 Charing Cross Road” at 7 p.m. on Sunday, April 11. The script is based on the memoir of Helene Hanff, a freelance writer in New York City, who ordered rare books from the London bookseller Marks & Company, at 84 Charing Cross Road. Schaffer will play Hanff, a part she first performed in 1988. Weatherby performs the part of Frank Doel. Community member and actor Barbara Jo Williams directs the play.
